A Pastor In Trouble.
MR.. TODD, OF MANASSAS, TO BE
TRIED BY THE WARRINGTON
PRTSBYTERY.

PRESBYTERY.
WASHINGTON, June 13.-Manas-
sas, Va, is being much torn up
over the scandal alleged against
the Rev. Mr.. Todd, of that place.
He has been pastor of the Presby-
terrain church there for a number
of years. Lately charges were pre-
ferred against him, on the affidavit
of Robert Turner, colored, who
claimed that he saw Rev. Mr. Todd
and a lady in very questionable
circumstances in the woods near
the Nokesville Church. Rev. Mr..
Todd denied the accusation, and
stated that the charge was due to
a man whom he had disciplined in
the church. When the story be-
came known the people divided
into TOddites and anti-TOddites.
AS a result of the talk ahOat, Rev.
DIR. Bryon Sunderland, of this city,
went to Manassas to-day, and as
moderator OF the court of inquiry
undertook to begin an investiga-
ton of the matter, for the benefit
OF the Washington Presbytery.
Nothing was done, except to
adopt a resolution that Rev. Mr..
Todd be tried by the Presbytery
at its next session. Rev. Mr.. Todd
assented to an immediate trial.
Mr.. John r. Hornbaker, who is the
principal prosecutor, refused to
present his testimony, on the
ground that be had already sent
the papers to the secretary of the
Washington Presbytery. A report
was circulated that the court of
inquiry to-day meant whitewash
for Rev. MI. Todd, but the resolu-
ton adopted dispelled this idea.
The most important witness in the
matter wOman--has not been
found, nor does it appear that she
is known. Rev. Mr.. TOdd's only
accuser will be the cOlored man
Turner.

A Sad Story.

About two miles north of Sails.
bury, Md, lives the family OF
Alfred Sullivan, a quiet and in.
dustrious farmer. Tie family con.
sists of Mr.. and Mrs. Sullivan, one
son and daughter. The young girl
is named Annie, and was, up to a
few weeks ago, a bright and
charming girl. About one year
ago Levy Hastings, the son OF
Station Hastings, a young farmer,
began to pay Miss Annie special
attention. These were received
with favor by the young girl, and
as the months flew by they both
became desperately in love. Last
Christmas the Young man feeling
that the way was all clear for a
happy union, proposed to Miss
Annie. To his great establishment
she told him she could not marry
him. Sad and disappointed he
turned away and sought to con.
quer his love for her. Every one
supposed this at an end, until about
four weeks ago Miss Annie began
to show signs of insanity. Steadily
she has grown worse, until she is
now hopelessly insane. The house
is situated near the line of n. Y.
& n. II. r. AS soon as a train is
seen or heard passing the unfortu
nate girl runs as fast as she car
for the track and makes the effort
to throw herself upon it. Once OF
twice she has been barely rescued
by her father. She talks constant
ly of her love for young Hastings
and her refusal to marry him, and
says unless he comes back to her
she will surely take her life. The
family have grown tired watching
her so closely and the father ap
piled yesterday to Judge Holland
for a jury de lunatico inquirendo
The young girl is about eighteen
years old.

Johnny ZfnksteIn In False COlOrs
He May keturn when He Gets

A story is in circulation that John
Zinkstein, who had been living with a
woman who works at the Stone Saloon,
named Miss Rosie -, had "skipped
out, taking with him $500 of the woman's
money. which she had given him to take
care OF. IL appears that che had told him
some time during week before last that on
the following Thursday she would leave
town, and therefore wanted her money.
He told her that he was going 10 look at
o mine, and 1t would be time enough to
give it to her on his return. This salts
fed Miss Rosie, and on Monday night
Zinkstein took the blackboard to Palisade
and left the country. He has frequently
been viotimized by parties borrowing
money from him and not returning 1t,
and his friends believe hat Miss Rosie has
received money from him from time to
time, thinking shat he had been giving II
to her out Of his W pocket, but in place
of that he had given her back the money
she had entrusted to his care, and when
she made the demand for it he was
ashamed to tell her what disposition he had
made Of it, and skipped out" Those
who have known Zinkstein for many
years say that as soon as he can make the
money good he will return.

Remarkable Growth.

The many friends Of Messrs. Montgom'
cry Ward & Co., formerly at 227 and 22s
Wabash Az, Chicago, will be glad ia
know that the rapid growth Of their bust
ness has forced them to remove from Wa
bash Av., to Ill, liz. 113 and ia Michi-
gan Av., where they have purchased q
magnificent building, the seven floors Of
which they occupy exclusively. These
seven floors are each 100x165 feet, aggre-
eating nearly 10000 square feet OF
about scres) Of floor surface. The new
quarters will enable them to handle their
large business to the better advantage OF
their thousands of customers. Fifteen
years ago Messrs. Montgomery Ward d
%. occupied but one o and that only
25x40 feet. The enormous growth OF their
business during the fifteen years can only
be explained by the fact that they sell di-
rect to customers, supplying all their
wants, and never misrepresent any article.
The success OF this house proves the old
saying, that Honesty is the best policy"
and from this policy they never deviate.
The fall catalogue issued by Messrs. Mont
gomery Ward & Co. ought to be in every
family.
